John Denver: Sweet Surrender chords
Start Jamming...
Lost and alone on some [A] forgotten highway
Traveled by many, remembered by [E] few
Looking for something that I can believe in
Looking for something that I'd like to do [A] with my life
There's nothing behind me and nothing that ties me to
[E] Something that might have been [A] true yesterday
[E]
Tomorrow is open, right now it seems to be more than enough
To just be here today
[A] And I don't know what the future is holding in store
I don't know where I'm going, I'm not sure [E] where I've been
There's a spirit that guides me, a light that shines for me
My life is worth the living, I don't need to see the [E] [A] end
[E] Sweet, [A] sweet surrender
[E] Live, [A] live without care
Like a fish in the [A]
water
Like [E] a bird in [A] the air
[F#] Sweet, [E] sweet [A] surrender
[E] Live, live [A] without care
Like a [E] fish in the [A] water, [E]
in [A] the air
Lost and alone on some forgotten highway
Traveled by many, remembered by [E] few
Looking for something that I can believe in
Looking for something that I'd [A] like to [E] do with my [A]
life
There's nothing behind me and nothing that ties me to
Something that might have been true [E] yesterday
Tomorrow is open, right now it seems to be more than enough
To just be here [A] today
And I don't know what the future is holding in store
I don't know where I'm going, I'm not sure where I've [E]
been
There's a spirit that guides me, a light that shines for me
My life is worth the living, I don't need to see the end
[E] Sweet, [A] sweet surrender
[E] Live, [A] live without care
[E] Like a fish [A] in the water,
[E] [A] in the air
[E] Sweet, [A] sweet surrender
[E] Live, [A] live without care
[E] Like a fish [A] in the water
[E] Like a bird in [A] the air
[E] Sweet, [A] sweet surrender
[E] Live, [A]
[E] live [A] without
[E] [A] care
[E] Sweet, [A] sweet surrender
[E] Live, [A] live without care
[E] Like a fish [A] in the water
[E] Like a bird in [A] the air
[E] Sweet, [A] sweet surrender
[E] Live, [A] live without care
[E] Like a fish [A] in the water
[E] [A]
